Guidekin's take

A private walk for your party only past the Gothic cathedral, the water mirror and the neoclassical theatre plus a few lesser known corners, ending with a glass of natural Bordeaux wine.

Two tiers set the length; the wine bar opens late afternoon and closes two days a week, and monuments are not entered. 4.93 from 242 reviews at €125 per person.

Best for: Choose the short Best of Bordeaux option at €125 per person: private walk, wine when the bar opens; two to book. 4.93, 242 reviews. Private Tours comparison

Trade-off: Per person, two minimum; monument entries extra.

In our comparison: #2 of 9 in Walking & City Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
